Joe Fraizer Dies From Cancer

Legendary boxer Joe Fraizer, famous for his left hook sadly passed away yesterday from liver cancer. Only diagnosed just over a month ago, the undisputed World Heavyweight boxing champion died at his home in Philadelphia just aged 67.

Amongst many fans and friends paying tribute including George Foreman, the one that stood out the most today was from his great rival Muhammad Ali:

"The world has lost a great champion...I will always remember Joe with respect and admiration. My sympathy goes out to his family and loved ones."

The pair had met on three occasions between 1971 and 1975 - two of the fights between that time being regarded the best fights in heavyweight history. Fraizer also known as 'Smokin' Joe' has left a great dent in the sports realm and will surely and truly be missed.
